Which Lightweight Double Pushchair Should You Buy?

A compact double pushchair makes it simple to get around, particularly when you have children of various age groups. They're generally easy to fold, steer, and transport up and down the stairs.

This City Mini GT2 offers side-by-side seats with plenty of legroom and reclining that can be adjusted. It also has huge UPF 50+ canopies with windows that peek out. It also has a clever frame that can be expanded to accommodate a second seat, and also a compatible car seat(s).

Side-by-Side

The majority of lightweight double pushchairs we've tested are side-by-side models and are best suited for kids who can stand up without assistance, as these models aren't equipped with car seat integration. That said there are some exceptions. Thule Urban Glide 2 Double and Baby Trend Sit 'N Stand Double are both great options that provide recline that can be adjusted in both seats, a huge canopy, and padded five-point harnesses. They're also easy to move despite their bigger footprint and are great for parents worried about fitting through doorways.

The Cybex Duet is a little different due to its clever frame that expands widthways to add another seat, which makes it lighter than most other side-by-side pushchairs available. It can fit through doors of standard size and is easy to maneuver on public transport. It's also a jogger, which is a great feature when you're planning to use it with a baby carrier or infant car seat. It's also available in a variety of exciting colors.

Another great side-by-side, lightweight double is the UPPAbaby Vista v2 Double, which offers even more customization with a modular frame. The clever design allows you to convert it into an individual or double buggy by adding two carrycots or car seats for children. It can even accommodate twins. It's an outstandingly practical choice for families that are growing, and the UPPAbaby also is among the lightest and most stylish umbrella strollers around.

Try the egg2, which can be folded down to the size and weight of a tiny suitcase. It can be used as a single or double with the addition of 2 carrycots or infant car seats, and our home testers loved the sleek and easy it was to handle even when loaded with children.

Double pushchairs with side-by-side seating aren't 100% foolproof, however- if your children are the same age or stage they may still fight over who is allowed to ride in which seat. If they are at different heights, then a tandem style may be the best option for them, since it allows them to face eachother.

Tandem

While side-by-side models are best suited to siblings of similar age, tandem lightweight stokke double stroller strollers come with their own appeal. Some can fit carseats that are larger, and others have reversible seats. Some even come with an additional carrycot or reclined seat that can be flipped in the middle. They tend to be more spacious and easy to get in and out of however their baskets are typically smaller than those of single buggies. They often have larger canopy with windows that peek out and padded leg cushions.

The iCandy Peach tandem is another excellent example of a light tandem that provides great value. The fabrics are less luxurious than those of some of our top-rated doubles. But, it looks stunning and is easy to use. One of the most striking things about it is its one-handed fold - although it does require practice, Kirstie in our Lab said it's "genius". It's not possible to fold it without the carrycot attached, however the mechanism for attaching and removing it is easy and quick.

Tandem pushchairs that are lightweight generally have tighter turns than side-by-side models however they are more difficult to drive on bumps and uneven surfaces. They can also be slow to pick up speed and can be heavier to move, which could result in strain on your back.

A convertible double buggy is an additional option. It is initially a single but you can also add adapters to convert it into double. It could have the option of a second seat, a carrycot or both in front. Or the children can be seated together. Some of them also offer the option of incorporating buggy boards, which can aid an older child keep up with younger siblings.

The Uppababy Vista V2 is a excellent example of a convertible, because it can also be converted into a twin pram through the purchase of additional cocoons (PS59 each) that provide a flat space for newborns. They can be placed side by side or attached to one another and you can also use them with the baby car seat that comes with the pushchair double (as as long as you choose the right one). Since they are made of high-quality materials, these types of buggies that are dual-use can be used for many years without displaying much wear, indicating they have the highest resale value.

Single-to-Double

This lightweight double buggy was designed for families who love to go on outdoor adventures and would like to upgrade from a single-stroller. It can be transformed into a jogger by acquiring kits that include air-filled tires and all-wheel suspension. It also handles rough terrain well and it's a tandem triple that is ideal for twins or children of various age groups. It's a great option for parents who want a chic design as elegant as a single. It is available in a variety of colors.

We loved the way that this iCandy model folds down using a single-hand mechanism that's extremely easy to master. It's heavier than other single-to double pushchairs, however our home tester Karolina says it's mobile even with two toddlers and carrying a carrycot.

The seat can be used parent-facing, and you can also purchase accessories for this stroller, such as the Roma Gemini carrycots (PS100 each) that are perfect for infants. The seats are comfortable for toddlers with excellent headrests and lumbar support. There are a variety of options for recline, with the front seat being adjustable to different positions, and the rear seat having the option of recline.

This kind of buggy has the greatest disadvantage of being wider than side-byside doubles. This makes it difficult to navigate through doorways and it can be difficult to get up and down kerbs. The suspension and wheels of these strollers tend to be able to deal with pavements. They're also lighter than many side-bysides which means you can have plenty of storage. These strollers aren't easy to maneuver through supermarkets with narrow aisles and they may struggle to carry a lot. It's a bit easier to turn them around even on the smallest of curving paths but even this can be a challenge. Some are also easier to turn than others, such as the Thule Urban Glide 2 double buggy travel system and Baby Trend Sit N' Stand Double, for instance.

Convertible

The best thing about convertible double pushchairs is the ability to adapt to the changing family needs. They are typically single buggies, and include adapters that permit you to add a second child's chair or a carrycot (in some instances) an automobile seat to the frame. Some are able to be converted to a single when your older child starts to walk or chooses to ride buggyboards.

This stylish tri-fold double stroller is one of the lightest on our list. It can hold up to 40 lbs per child and comes with a storage basket between the seats. The large canopy with a peekaboo window, multi-position reclining seats and front and back suspensions to ensure smoother rides on rough terrain were praised by the home testers. It also has a convenient parent cup holder as well as an ample, easily accessible basket. They did note that the backs have tiny pockets, which are just big enough to fit a phone and keys.

This lightweight, high-end side-by-side is available in more than 20 configurations. It also includes a second chair and carrycot. Its impressive set of features includes a handlebar with a high-profile design for easier steering and a rear and front suspension to smooth rough terrain; a self-standing compact fold with handy straps that make it easy to schlep and seven-inch wheel lock that swivels in the front and 10-inch rear wheels with suspension to provide a more comfortable ride. The only drawback is that you'll need to purchase an additional car seat or baby carrier.

This versatile tandem is the top choice of our home testers because it is simple to maneuver and features an enormous shopping basket that is accessible from both seats when in the parent-facing position. Its light weight (about the same as a few single pushchairs) makes it a breeze to maneuver. Many people praise the clever way it connects the second seat or riding board in the back. Parents also liked the fact that it could accommodate infant carriers and car seats from multiple brands, including some that don't normally fit into other double buggies.
